Gnome Valentine

Good morning everyone! I hope that everyone is having a nice New Year so far. Mine has been good, no complaints. For today’s card I used the new Gnome Sweet Gnome Stamp Set from the Occasions Mini Catalog which you can now order from. I didn’t think I was going to like it at first but it really is cute when it’s all colored in. I stamped the Gnomes in Black Staz-On Ink on Very Vanilla Card Stock. I used the Stampin’ Write Markers in Marina Mist, Pool Party, Soft Suede, Sahara Sand, Cherry Cobbler, Daffodil Delight and Pretty In Pink to color them in. It’s a lot of colors but I wanted it to have a colorful playful look. I used the Petals-A-Plenty Textured Impressions Embossing Folder for the background in Certainly Celery, it gives it a nice garden feel! The greeting is from the Delightful Dozen Set, a great set for anyone to have in their arsenal. I used the Heart To Heart Punch for the three hearts and they are punched out in Cherry Cobbler. I’m looking forward to making lots more Valentine’s cards and the Occasions Mini has tons of great sets. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Contempo Chocolate

I think this will be my last Christmas card post for the year. This is also one of my favorite cards. I have made this card many times and I love it because it’s a card and it holds chocolate. You can also make it with a gift card holder inside. I used some Cherry Cobbler, Garden Green and Whisper White Card Stock. The image and greeting is from the Contempo Christmas Stamp Set and I stamped them in Cherry Cobbler. Using the Simply Scored makes this super easy to make. The Perfect Polkadots Textured Impressions Embossing Folder and some Stampin’ Dimensionals give it some depth. I hoe you like the card and as always thanks for stopping by.

Santa Belt Bag Topper

Good morning everyone! Has everyone started making their New Year’s resolutions? I haven’t, I find that I don’t follow them for very long. 🙂 Anyway, here is another post with a Christmas theme. I had to wrap a gift and I didn’t have a box but the gift fit in a kraft paper bag so I made a quick bag topper and card that matched. For the bag topper I used some Cherry Cobbler and Garden Green Card Stock. I used the Scallop Edge Punch on the bottom edge and the image is from the Delightful Dozen Stamp Set and it was stamped on Whisper White. I punched the edge of both sides for the top and put on the greeting. The cute Santa tags are from the Tags Till Christmas set and they were punched out with the Large Tag Punch and the mounted on some Garden Green Card Stock and punched out with the Extra Large Tag Punch. The card uses the same elements but I used the Snow Burst Textured Impressions Embossing Folder for the background. It a great way to dress up a plain bag and it’s quick and easy too. Sorry the pictures are so dark, I need to work on that! I hope you like the projects and thanks as always for stopping by!

Christmas Lodge Lovely Trees

Another card that I made for Christmas was cased from another Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator, Ann Schach. She made a gorgeous card back in November using the Christmas Lodge Stamp Set. For a backdrop she used the Lovely As a Tree Wood Mount Set. I used the same idea to make my Dad’s card. The Lodge and Trees are stamped in Early Espresso, with the second set of trees stamped off to give it some depth. For even more depth the lodge was cut out and put on Stampin’ Dimensionals. I used a little Dazzling Details on the roof for a little snow effect. The 1 1/4″ Square punch is an easy way to make the flags on either side of the greeting (a tip from Mary Fish!). The edges of the Very Vanilla Card Stock were sponged with Crumb Cake and the greeting was rubbed in Cherry Cobbler. The box uses the same lodge but stamped in Cherry Cobbler with the greeting from Petite Pairs. It’s a nice masculine card and my dad liked it, I hope you do too. Thanks for stopping by, have a great day!

Butterfly Christmas & Sneak Peek

So Christmas has come and gone. I hope that everyone got what they wanted and that you all had a great day. I’ll be posting some items that I made that I couldn’t post before because the people they were intended for would have seen them! Here is the Christmas Card that I made for my mom along with a box that matches the card. I used some Elegant Eggplant, Cherry Cobbler and Very Vanilla Card Stock. The beautiful doily is the new Paper Doily Large Sizzlits Die available in a few days (January 4th) from the new Occasions Mini Catalog. It’s very intricate and looks great with the butterflies from the Beautiful Wings Embosslits Die. The greeting on the card is from the Contempo Christmas Set and I punched a little Silver Glimmer paper with the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack for a little bling. On the box I used the Lace Ribbon Border Punch and the Beautiful Butterflies Bigz Die and then ran it through the Big Shot in the Perfect Polkadots Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. The greeting on the box os from the Sincere Salutations Wood Mount Set. My mom loved the card and box and I hope you like them too. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

PPA 124 & Sneak Peek

I love playing along with the Pals Paper Arts each week. There is nothing like a good sketch to get you inspired to make a card. I was a little sad when I realized that this week will be the last Christmas themed card for the year. The holidays are almost upon us and soon we’ll be in the new year. Time for new challenges and new products from Stampin’ Up! For this card I used some Marina Mist, Real Red, Early Espresso and Whisper White Smooth Card Stock. I used the Scallop Edge Border Punch on the “ribbon” across the middle and the rosette was actually made using and old Tim Holtz Sizzix Die and some Letters to Santa Designer Series Paper. The circles on the rosette are made using the 1/2″ and 3/4″ inch Circle Punches. I used one of my favorite new products from the Occasions Mini Catalog (available January 4, 2012), the new Framelits Label Collection Dies. The ornaments are from the Merry & Type Stamp Set and I sponged the edges with some Early Espresso Ink. The greeting is also from the same set and I used the Ticket Corner Punch for a little added detail. I hope that you like the card and that everyone has a happy holiday. Thanks for stopping by!

Contempo Ornaments

Hey everyone! Today’s card is one of the last few Holiday Cards that I have left to post. I got the Contempo Christmas Clear Mount Stamp Set a little later than I should have but I’m glad that I got it. I love the greeting and the ornaments are great. You can use the Ornament Punch like I did to punch out the image after you stamp it. I used some Cherry Cobbler Bakers Twine to hang them from the greeting. The Snow Burst Textured Impressions Embossing Folder makes a nice backdrop for everything. For a little bust of sparkle I punched out a piece of Silver Glimmer Paper with the 1/2″ Circle Punch. It’s a nice simple card with a classic look. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Always Artichoke Winter Post

I have to say that I have liked the Winter Post Wood Mount set since I first saw it in the Idea Book & Catalog back in September (which was when I had my first look at Stampin’ Up!). How happy was I when It was on sale in the Online Extravaganza… VERY! This card is nice and simple for those last minute Holiday Cards that you may have forgotten to make. I used Always Artichoke and Very Vanilla Smooth Card Stock. I stamped the background with the snowflake stamp and stamped two images and mounted them. The greeting is from Petite Pairs, which is a great addition to your arsenal as it has an inside and outside one for a bunch of different occasions. The card took just a few minutes to put together but looks good enough to send out to anyone! Thanks for stopping by and have a great night!

PPA 123 & Sneak Peek

Hello everyone! This weeks Pals Paper Arts Challenge was to get dressed up like Fred Astaire…

I decided that I would do a Valentine’s Day card in a rich color, but not your typical card. I give you the 3D box card. The card is cut from a 12 x 5 1/2 piece of Whisper White Card Stock. The windows were cut out using my trusty Paper Cutter. It folds flat and can be put in a standard A2 envelope. I used the new Take It to Heart Set  for the far image from the Occasion Mini Catalog that you can order from starting January 4, 2012. I stamped it in Rich Razzleberry and also used the same color Card Stock. The Silver Glimmer Paper was cut out using the new Framelits Hearts Collection also from the new Occasions Catalog along with the sentiment from the P.S. I Love You Stamp Set. Finally I used the new Adorning Edge Textured Impressions Embossing Folder for the hearts along the bottom of the card. For the perfect finishing touch I added some Basic Jewel Rhinestones to the top left corner. I am very happy with the way this card came out and hope that you like it too! Thanks for stopping by.
